(A)Rejoice greatly, daughter of Zion!
Shout in triumph, daughter of Jerusalem!
Behold, your (B)king is coming to you;
He is [a](C)righteous and (D)endowed with salvation,
(E)Humble, and mounted on a donkey,
Even on a (F)colt, the [b]foal of a donkey.
10 And I will (G)eliminate the chariot from Ephraim
And the (H)horse from Jerusalem;
And the (I)bow of war will be eliminated.
And He will speak (J)peace to the nations;
And His (K)dominion will be from sea to sea,
And from the Euphrates River to the ends of the earth.

Restoration of Judah and Ephraim

11 As for you also, because of the (L)blood of My covenant with you,
I have set your (M)prisoners free from the [c]waterless pit.
12 Return to the [d](N)stronghold, you prisoners [e]who have the (O)hope;
This very day I am declaring that I will restore (P)double to you.
13 For I will (Q)bend Judah [f]as My bow,
I will fill the bow with Ephraim.
And I will stir up your sons, Zion, against your sons, (R)Greece;
And I will make you like a (S)warrior’s sword.

The Coming King(A)

“Rejoice (B)greatly, O daughter of Zion!
Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem!
Behold, (C)your King is coming to you;
He is just and having salvation,
Lowly and riding on a donkey,
A colt, the foal of a donkey.

The (E)battle bow shall be cut off.
He shall speak peace to the nations;
His dominion shall be (F)‘from sea to sea,
And from the River to the ends of the earth.’

Because of the blood of your covenant,
I will set your (G)prisoners free from the waterless pit.
12 Return to the stronghold,
(H)You prisoners of hope.
Even today I declare
That I will restore (I)double to you.
13 For I have bent Judah, My bow,
Fitted the bow with Ephraim,
And raised up your sons, O Zion,
Against your sons, O Greece,
And made you like the sword of a mighty man.”
